Managing Partner, Latin America & the Caribbean
We are proud to announce that several attorneys in our Costa Rica office have been listed in the fourth edition of The Best Lawyers in Costa Rica for their professional accomplishments. Notably, Partner Federico Solis was listed for his work in immigration, labor and employment law, and Leonor Echeverria and Leon Zarnowski were listed for their work in immigration law.
This is the fourth year in a row that Federico, Leonor and Leon have been included in this list. Only five attorneys total were listed in the immigration law category in Costa Rica this year, and no other firm had more than a single attorney listed.
Inclusion in Best Lawyers is a rigorous process, which is primarily based on peer review. Once attorney nominations have been submitted, currently-listed lawyers provide their feedback about the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical and practice area. This feedback is then analyzed and reviewed, and the nominees go through an eligibility check to ensure they are in good standing with their local bar association before results are released.
Congratulations to our talented attorneys included once again in this year’s publication!
